2. General
Hot water storage tanks made of stainless steel with hydraulic connections to allow installation and
combination in cooling systems and heat pumps.
All models have CFC-free thermal insulation, which minimises heat loss in the storage tank, thus favouring
energy savings and complying with current regulations in this area. They are available in different
configurations. All models comply with the European Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU (Art. 4.3).
3. Aplicación
The inertial storage heaters of the AR-A INOXseries are designed for exclusive use in closed cooling circuits
and heat pumps.
They are installed in those systems with thermal inertia, where the accumulation of energy is an essential
factor for the efficient operation of the system, allowing to reduce the number of starts and stops of the
groups when there are rapid temperature variations.
4. Arrival control
Check immediately that the equipment corresponds to the order and that all components are in perfect
condition and that the correct operating instructions are enclosed. It is especially important to check the
buffer tank for possible deformations that could affect its resistance. If defects or damage are found, contact
the manufacturer immediately.
Check that the data on the sticker affixed to the buffer tank matches the purchase specification and is suitable
for the installation. Before proceeding with the installation, make sure that the technical staff has an
appropriate profile and training in the installation of this type of equipment. In any case, the local regulations
in force for the operation of such equipment must be considered. Installation and operation must be carried
out in accordance with good practice by professional installers and authorised technical personnel.
The manufacturer shall not assume any liability for damage caused by improper transportation, nor shall any
damage caused by improper installation or misuse of the product be attributable to the manufacturer.
5. Normativa de montaje
In addition to national regulations and directives, the following installation regulations must be observed:
DIN 1988 Technical rules for domestic hot water installations
DIN 4708 Centralised water heating systems
DIN 4753 Storage tanks and heating systems for domestic hot water and primary heating systems
DIN 18380 Heating systems and centralised water heating systems

2
DIN 18381 Gas, water and drainage installations inside buildings
DIN EN 12828 Heating installations in the building. Design of DHW systems
EN 12897 Heat transfer to water - Specified for indirectly heated water heaters and pressure storage tanks
(closed).
EN 12975 Solar thermal installation and its components.
6. Installation
They shall be installed in a weatherproof enclosure having the necessary access dimensions to facilitate
inspection of the accumulator.
The installation in which the puffer tank is placed must provide for the installation of a safety system to limit
the pressure and ensure that the pressure does not exceed the upper design limit of the buffer tank. The
maximum working pressure value and pressure differentials must be taken into account when selecting a
suitable safety relief valve.
The safety relief valve (DIN4753 Part 1 section 6.3.2) shall be installed by a T-connection at the upper
connection V of the buffer storage tanks. It shall be connected directly to the storage tank, without any
interposed valve, which would allow it to be shut off. An air vent shall be fitted at the other end of the T
connection. The valve shall be accessible and mounted vertically.
If the heating capacity of the storage tank is higher than indicated forthe nominal volumes given in the table,
a suitably dimensioned safety relief valve must be used.
¡¡¡ The opening pressure of the safety relief valve must be at
most equal to the working pressure of the tank!!!
The warning according to DIN 4753 part 1 section 6.3.4.2 must be read on the safety relief valve:
¡¡¡ During the heating phase, for safety reasons, water may
escape from the exhaust duct!!!
¡¡¡ Keep the exhaust pipe open!!!
Safety valve evacuation pipeline: The evacuation of boiling water and steam must not endanger people.
The discharge lines of 2 or more safety valves must lead freely and separately to a drainage point.
The exhaust duct must be made with the same outletsection as the safety valve. It must not have more than
2 bends or be longer than 2 metres. If more than 2 bends or more than 2 metres in length are unavoidable,
the cross-section of the exhaust duct must be increased accordingly. More than 3 bends and a duct length
of more than 4 metres shall never be permissible.
The end of the drainpipe must be clearly visible, protruding 20 to 40 mm above the drain pan or drain trap.
The duct outlet must be within the ice protected area.
It is recommended to install a pressure reducer when the pressure in the network exceeds 4 bar.
Provide for the installation of a correctly dimensioned expansion vessel (EN12828). Ensure the correct
functioning of the selected safety devices (safety valve, reducer, expansion vessel, ....) avoiding their
interception by other elements.
Use a non-return valve or siphon at the cold water inlet with a length of 10 times the pipe diameter to avoid
heat loss due to reverse circulation.

It is recommended to install air vents to prevent air accumulation.
The installation of automatic filling valves in closed primary heating circuits is not recommended, as it may
lead to re-oxygenation in the system. In the case of combined systems, potential oxygen supply parts of the
system must be isolated from the primary circuit or materials must be used to prevent oxygen supply.
It is obligatory to install a water meter in the primary closed heating circuits to check that there are no
renewals above the values allowed by the standard.
Only original manufacturer's components may be used as spare parts.
This is an indicative layout. It is never a substitute for an expert's project.
7. Filling
Make sure that the hoses and couplings of the system are watertight.
Check all connections of the accumulator for tightness and closure. All connections that are not to be used
must be properly plugged.
Proceed with the flushing of the pipelines according to DIN 1988.
Fill the puffer tank and drain it.
Fill the heating circuit according to VDI 2035 standard, Purge and increase the operating pressure. Do not
exceed the maximum operating pressure indicated on the label of the buffer tank.
Check the tightness of the connections at working pressure.
Verify the activation pressure of the safety valve and check its functionality.
Refill the circuits if necessary after purging and check for leaks and operation.

¡¡ The tanks contain hot water at high temperatures.!!
¡¡ Do not touch the hydraulic connections of accumulators at
high temperatures.!!
8. Maintenance
Maintenance should only be carried out by authorized technical personnel.
Check the cleanliness of filters.
Purge the circuits and check them for leaks.
Check the safety valve's activation pressure and functionality.
Check expansion vessel pre-charge.
Check the working pressure values and pressure fluctuations.
Verify temperatures.
